In Japan, these are very common. Theatrical productions tend to be set for short runs, which enables more niche productions to get made at all. The final performance is often filmed for bluray release. This is especially true with [[ScreenToStageAdaptation 2.5D theatre]] productions, based on anime and games, which often develop into long series. Non-Japanese musicals, such as ''Theatre/{{Elisabeth}}'', also get a lot of Japanese proshots.
